Answer: $48,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The entire amount earned by Partner B is what is reported not just the amount they decide to withdraw so Partner B will record the entire $48,000 that they earned from the partnership.

Personal income taxes are made on gross figures not net which is why the full amount is recorded.
